TV show description:
A high-tech police drama series, APB is inspired by a New York Times Magazine article by David Amsden.
The Chicago Police Department is spiraling out of control thanks to high crime, officer-involved shootings, cover-ups, corruption, and under-funding. Billionaire engineer Gideon Reeves (Justin Kirk) wants to change all that. After his best friend is murdered in a botched robbery attempt, the killer remains at large and Reeves demands justice.
Putting up millions of dollars of his own money, he makes an unprecedented deal to take charge of the troubled 13th District. He wants to reboot it as a technically innovative police force. With Gideon himself having created the department’s cutting-edge technology, this eccentric yet brilliant outsider challenges the city’s police force to rethink everything about the way they fight crime.
But the near-overnight transition to becoming the city’s most advanced police district isn’t easy. Gideon knows that, if he’s going to change anything, he needs help. He finds this help in Detective Theresa Murphy (Natalie Martinez). She’s an ambitious, street-smart cop who’s willing to give Reeves’ technological changes a chance.
Skeptical Captain Ned Conrad (Ernie Hudson), Officer Nicholas Brandt (Taylor Handley), and Officer Tasha Goss (Tamberla Perry) are going to be a bit harder to convince.
With the help of Reeves’ gifted tech officer, Ada Hamilton (Caitlin Stasey), Reeves and Murphy embark on a mission to turn the 13th District into a dedicated crime-fighting force of the 21st century.
Episode #12 — Ricochet
When Gideon is blamed for recent terrorist attacks, he and Captain Conrad work fast to track down the real culprit. But Gideon finds himself in a predicament when Danny continues to use his technological skills to disrupt the city, leaving Murphy, Ada and the rest of the squad struggling to find a way to stop him. Discover who makes it out alive.
First aired: April 24, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the APB TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
i agree, all good shows get cancelled like apb every year my mind is boggled at who is in charge of tv
I didn’t know it was canceled & was looking to see when the 2nd season would start. It is such a shame that this was canceled. Hope Netflix picks it up. It was a good show.
I really really liked this show. Can’t believe it has been cancelled. Good shows always get the boot. TV is crap anymore!!
I really liked this show and it should be brought back because it wasn’t given a chance. A lot of people today DVR shows and watch them at their convenience. If shows are being cancelled because of real time watchers being polled then someone needs to come up with a different system of determining what shows stay and what shows go.
This show should be able to have a second chance. A lot of people liked it. It had drama and alot of Technology that can be used in law enforcement.
I really liked the show. Was looking forward to seeing a second season. What a shame it wasn’t given a chance.
Fox failed again. They need new owners every time they put on a good show they take it off. Another station should pick up the show.
I loved this show and I am very sad that it got cancelled it was a good show and kept you on your feet unlike a lot of other shows. I am hugely disappointed in Fox for this call.
This is a great show, drama, action, a little humor and a little bit of Sci fi. What more do you need. For once listen to the people, bring it back
Yes, I liked this show a lot. Why are all the “technical” shows canceled and the brainless ones (bachelor etc) kept?
Yet again FOX brings out another awesome show only to throw it away after one season. Why do I even bother to think that each time will be different? This is a chance to redeem yourselves network execs, listen to the fans (you know the people who actually watch the show?) Bring the show back
I really like/love apb…so sad it doesnt have another season…plss.. give another chance for APB..
Great show. Bring it back!
YOU DIDN’T EVEN GIVE IT A CHANCE!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!! NETWORKS ARE RUINING TV WITH REALITY SHOWS!! PLEASE STOP!! GIVE REAL SHOWS A CHANCE!!
I think APB should not have been cancelled.
My whole family watched and enjoyed
The show.
This happens too many times……
TV networks bring out a show….. people enjoy it and then it’s stopped…… BULLCRAP
